Matt Sherer

Location and Scenery: I’m based in Loveland, Colorado, surrounded by mountains. It’s my favorite place to be, especially after living in Wisconsin for 30 years, where there weren’t any mountains.

Special Skills: I'm guaranteed to laugh at my own jokes. Life's not a good time if you're not laughing, right?

Fun Fact: I have my own self-hosted streaming service called MattFlix.

Favorite Tool or Tech: Web sockets are currently my favorite technology. As for tools, I’m a big fan of Node.js—it’s my “pseudo tool” of choice.

What do you like to do to unwind outside of work? Driving in the mountains is one of my favorite parts of the day when I have the chance.

Favorite part of being an Otter? Being able to contribute and give back to the SwiftOtter team, our clients, and the community. There’s a strong sense of hospitality and teamwork here, and I love being part of it.

Short Bio: I’ve been working in agency-related roles for over 16 years, starting out with nonprofit organizations before diving into the world of Magento development. Over time with SwiftOtter, I’ve transitioned into more of a management role, but I'm very emphatic about software. I have a home lab (a little server rack) so I can always continue learning and growing. I’m a mountain fanatic, and also a Porsche fanatic.
